Chapter 606: One Million Taels?
Yin Kun had to nod and replied, "Not bad!" That concubine originally only wanted to blackmail the Xia clan chief, who wanted the Xia clan patriarch to buy it at all, and wanted to kill people and kill them. ”
Yin Kun said this, and his face showed disdain.
The Xia family is as ruthless as Xia Qing, isn't Xia Qing just relying on the support of the emperor to keep his eyes above the top?
"These people sacrifice their clansmen for their own interests, and they don't care about it at all." Yin Kun was very unaccustomed to the actions of Xia Qing and the Xia clan.
"Sacrifice one person to save everyone. In doing so, Xia also minimized the loss. But Xia Qing didn't restrain the clansmen and let those clansmen be so rampant, that was Xia Qing's mistake. It was he who allowed those clansmen to do anything wrong, didn't those people just rely on Xia Qing's power? ”
Gu Chengyu shook his head, this Xia Xuan is also a fool.
The gun shot the first bird, he is a small county man, he has such a big courage, doesn't this pull him out of the top tank as soon as something happens?
But in the end, I didn't get home stupidly, and I knew to leave two books for self-defense.
How can those people be credited? Maybe they'll be wiped out.
Xia Xuan kept his back hand, also to threaten the Xia family, not only to save the lives of his wife and children, but also to ensure that they have no worries about food and clothing.
"But that concubine is a good one, knowing that Patriarch Xia ordered him to be killed, he was able to find me."
Gu Chengyu nodded clearly, but then he asked nervously: "Then senior brother, how did you get out of danger, those people must be chasing him, right?" ”
Yin Kun glanced at Gu Chengyu approvingly, talking to smart people is to save trouble.
"Fortunately, I brought some good hands with me, and besides, I am a minister, and these people don't dare to go too far. It's just a pity that the account book is a pity, and when it came to me, there was only one book, not to mention, and it had been soaked in water. ”
Gu Chengyu was a little strange, "Only one copy?" So where did the other one go? ”
Since I've brought one of them, there's no reason why I can't see one!
"It was said that it was damaged on the road, and the book left behind was very blurry in many places, and I couldn't see it clearly." Yin Kun said with emotion.
Otherwise, the harvest this time is not small, and those high-ranking officials have nothing to do, but it is good to pull out the minions on their heads.
"Have you seen the contents of those two account books?" Gu Chengyu didn't believe that the concubine would not read it, and it was not difficult to write these down.
Who would have thought that Yin Kun shook his head, "He's dead!" ”
"Pierced through the heart by an arrow!"
Yin Kun said this very regretfully, "How could those people let him go?" But they didn't attack me, these people were well-trained, and my people didn't catch up. ”
"Did you check the place where the concubine stayed? People who have been in contact with him have also checked it, right? ”
Gu Chengyu was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and asked.
Gu Chengyu was not interested in the process of the concubine's escape.
Yin Kun was shocked when he heard this, this was his negligence.
"It was my negligence, he only said that the account book had fallen in the process of escaping, and I didn't think he might be lying."
Indeed, Xia Xuan will hide one hand, and the concubine may also hide one hand.
Why didn't he expect that the concubine would hide the account books?
Maybe that one is more important than the one handed over by Xia Xuan's concubine, and that is what they left to save their lives.
"It's a pity, the book he gave me caught some low-level officials, including the Tongzhi and Zhixian of Yishui County, as well as a number of officials in the county government, and three or four officials of the same grade in neighboring counties. Yan Tongju was also implicated in this, and his name was on the account books, but the amount was a little vague. ”
Gu Chengyu pondered for a moment, these were low-grade officials, and it seemed that the most important thing was another account book.
How could a county be greedy for hundreds of thousands of taels of silver? These low-level officials alone will definitely not be able to hold back.
As for Yan Huinong, looking at the expression of the senior brother, he is naturally fine.
"Is it handled properly? Won't leave a handle, right? ”
Gu Chengyu also had one more word, and he was naturally relieved that the senior brother was doing things.
This senior brother is not very sensitive to officialdom and politics, but he is better than being steady.
"This is natural, since it can be spent in other places, then his name can also be spent, right?"
Yin Kun laughed, appreciating Gu Chengyu's acuity.
"Did he really meddle?" Gu Chengyu didn't know Yan Huinong, and the teacher rarely mentioned it.
If Yan Huinong really intervened, then he would have to weigh more when dealing with this person in the future.
It's stupid without him!
Taking advantage of his position to receive a little benefit, as long as it is not excessive, Gu Chengyu feels that it is normal.
After all, the official's salary is too low, and if he lives on it, then the banquet colleagues can empty out the family's wealth.
He is not a pedantic person, otherwise he would not have given silver to officials before, and he would have given Yin Kun a share of the restaurant's profits.
But he can't send it blindly, these are all familiar with each other, not greedy, and not flamboyant.
If Yan Huinong, the Xia family's silver, dares to accept it, it can only explain two points.
Either that, he's greedy and can't stand the temptation.
Either he is not sensitive to the current situation of the imperial court, thinking that Xia Qing is like the sun and can always be beautiful.
Of course, it is not excluded that someone has been caught.
No matter which one it is, this person's achievements in officialdom are unlikely to be great anyway.
"He told me that he had been calculated, and he had not confiscated the silver at all, and this matter was related to the prefect of Yingnan Prefecture. He is a general judge, and he was originally supervising those officials, and he and the prefect cannot be of the same mind. The prefect made a plan, and the whereabouts of the silver were estimated to be in the prefect. ”
Gu Chengyu smiled, such a reason needs to be verified.
Yin Kun saw that Gu Chengyu was noncommittal, so he said: "Yan Huinong is from a poor family, and the teacher also liked him back then, and he was quite upright. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a general judgment from the five grades all these years. ”
Gu Chengyu nodded, but he didn't think so.
Yin Kun has not seen Yan Huinong for many years and is not often together, who knows if this person's temperament has changed?
Some officials may also have been upright in the first half of their lives, and they did not go to camp and never moved their positions.
Later, when I saw that others were soaring, I was naturally angry.
It is also very likely that he will abandon his previous principles and become the kind of person he despised before.
Of course, Gu Chengyu did not believe that Yan Huinong was such a person.
Maybe people have always been so upright, it's impossible to say.
I still have to see myself, and I can have a bottom in my heart after getting along.
"How many taels of silver did you find? Is the emperor still satisfied? ”
Gu Chengyu diverted the topic and asked about the amount of silver.
He thinks it's at least 800,000 taels, right? After all, the number was said before.
This time, Yin Kun had a look of satisfaction on his face, "A total of one hundred and thirty thousand taels of silver!" ”
Gu Chengyu raised his head from the tea bowl, "So many? ”
For Gu Chengyu's surprise, Yin Kun felt that it was reasonable.
When he searched for the silver taels, he was also shocked in his heart.
A small county prince actually embezzled more than one million taels of silver, how much money is this? I want to talk with more like-minded people about "The Road to the Peasant Family's Fortune and Prosperity", and pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find a confidant~
